Odaily News – Robinhood's blockchain, Robinhood Chain, has recently seen a surge in trading activity. On August 30, the network processed a record 5.52 million transactions in a single day, with on-chain applications generating approximately $2.66 million in 24-hour revenue—surpassing Ethereum's roughly $1.3 million and trailing only Solana's $5.07 million.Meanwhile, Robinhood Chain recorded approximately $875 million in daily decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volume. Among this, the two major versions of Uniswap contributed around $432 million and $357 million in trading volume, respectively.Meme coin trading is one of the primary drivers behind this surge in activity. Data shows that Pons, a token launch platform on Robinhood Chain, created approximately 22,600 tokens in a single day, marking an increase of over 40% from the previous day. Together, GMGN, Pons, and Uniswap accounted for roughly 88% of the network's application revenue.Robinhood launched Robinhood Chain on July 1, initially focusing on the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) such as stocks. However, within just a few weeks of going live, meme coin trading quickly took center stage. Now, as the crypto market warms up, trading activity on Robinhood Chain has continued to intensify, with daily network transactions climbing from under 1 million in early July to over 5 million.Based on current data, the most active use case on Robinhood Chain is not tokenized stocks, but rather meme coin issuance and speculative trading.

According to the morning report published by on-chain analyst Axel Adler Jr., following Bitcoin's rebound to approximately $78,000, the financial pressure on coin holders has significantly eased: Bitcoin's net unrealized loss (NUL) dropped from 18.57% to 7.35% over the past ten days, a decline of roughly 60%. This represents a near 71% decrease from the local peak of 25.21% on June 30, reaching its lowest level since May 11. Meanwhile, the 90-day realized profit/loss ratio rose to 1.003 on August 26, marking the first time it has returned above 1 since late July. This indicates that, calculated on a 90-day smoothed basis, realized profits have slightly exceeded realized losses. Prior to this, the metric stayed below 1 for 26 consecutive days beginning July 31, touching 0.747 on August 16 when BTC traded around $62,800. The report notes that on-chain loss pressure has shifted from dominating to improving, but the profit/loss ratio sits only slightly above the critical threshold, insufficient to confirm a trend reversal. Subsequent monitoring should focus on whether this indicator can sustainably hold its ground and advance, as well as whether unrealized losses remain subdued. If the ratio falls back below 1 and unrealized losses rebound, it may signal renewed selling pressure.
Odaily News: As of August, cumulative top-ups on USDC- and USDT-linked stablecoin cards have reached $13.8 billion, an increase of nearly $10 billion over the past 12 months. Stablecoin cards are shifting USDC and USDT from trading balances toward everyday consumer use cases.USDC currently leads in tracked card spending, while USDT is accelerating its catch-up. The two follow different adoption paths: USDC benefits more from fintech integrations and payment infrastructure, whereas USDT is more active across exchanges, remittances, and emerging markets.On-chain settlement also reflects a multi-chain distribution, with Base leading at approximately $1.2 billion, followed by Solana at $635 million, Polygon at $544 million, and Optimism at $509 million. Networks such as Arbitrum, Scroll, Ethereum, and Stellar are also carrying significant activity.Stablecoin cards still rely on traditional payment networks like Visa and Mastercard, shifting the competitive focus toward custody, FX costs, cashback, and capital efficiency. Meanwhile, Circle has renewed its USDC partnership with Coinbase under the original terms, excluding any dividend arrangements. (Bitcoin.com News)

In its published analysis, BIT notes that Bitcoin is experiencing its strongest rally since the collapses of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in March 2023. During that period, US authorities implemented emergency measures to stabilize the banking system, and the current market sentiment mirrors that era—the recent interventions by the US Treasury in the Japanese yen FX market and bond markets have heightened investor expectations for further macroeconomic policy support. Meanwhile, the SEC's proposed regulatory framework for crypto assets has sent increasingly favorable signals, further bolstering market sentiment. BIT's official Chinese-language analysis indicates that Bitcoin has regained its upward momentum, aligning closely with the scenarios discussed in research over the past several weeks.

Odaily News, Ansem commented on X platform regarding "Kraken might become the first compliant CEX to deploy HIP-3," stating that if Hyperliquid aims to conduct compliant business in the US, it may need to find a partner that is both familiar with its product architecture and possesses complete regulatory qualifications. Kraken could be one of the potential choices.He pointed out that after Kraken's recent acquisitions of NinjaTrader and Bitnomial, its parent company Payward now holds FCM, DCM, and DCO licenses under the CFTC regulatory framework. Meanwhile, Hyperliquid has already established the corresponding infrastructure through HIP-3, meaning Kraken could theoretically serve as a new access point, offering related products in a manner similar to TradeXYZ. Arjun Sethi has consistently emphasized publicly that Kraken aims to play a "positive-sum game." Among existing US centralized exchanges, Kraken's potential may be severely underestimated. If this partnership actually materializes, it would be a major strategic move for Kraken to expand its market influence and add a significant business line.
Odaily News - Bitcoin extended its gains on Wednesday and climbed above $72,000 on Thursday, reaching its highest level since June 1.Market analysis suggests that the recent rally is primarily driven by easing pressure in the U.S. Treasury market. The White House's earlier signals of support for Treasury market stability alleviated investor concerns over bond market volatility. However, the longer-term trajectory still depends on changes in Federal Reserve liquidity policy.Analyst Pedro Fontes noted that if the world's largest debt market requires policy support to maintain stable operation, it would further strengthen demand for assets that are scarce, predictable, and not reliant on government debt expansion—characteristics that Bitcoin aligns with. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index fell 0.88% to 98.77 yesterday, hitting a fresh low since May.Strive Founder and CEO Matt Cole stated that the dollar index has been in a long-term "structural downtrend," and a weaker dollar could create a more favorable investment environment for assets like Bitcoin. Markets will continue to monitor the White House's further remarks on the bond market, shifts in geopolitical conditions, and U.S. initial jobless claims data today, as these factors could influence Treasury yields and market liquidity expectations.

Odaily News, X-Agent recently published a technical article titled "An OPC Is a Stack, Not a Headcount Story," arguing that as AI significantly reduces R&D and operational costs, the competitiveness of a One Person Company (OPC) should no longer be measured by how much work a single person can complete.The article points out that an OPC with true commercial capability needs to establish a complete closed loop spanning demand discovery, AI production, capability infrastructure, distribution, economic systems, and market feedback.And this is precisely the problem X-Agent aims to solve.At the capability layer, X-Agent leverages MCP to help individual developers productize their capabilities, transforming a project into a service that can be discovered, invoked, and verified by Agents. At the commercial layer, X-Agent further connects Agent distribution and payment infrastructure, enabling services to enter real Agent workflows, with usage-based billing, budget management, payment, and settlement.Meanwhile, the X-Agent MCP Hackathon is also driving this model into practice: developers do not need to start by building an "MCP server" from scratch. Instead, they first prove that a real capability can solve a practical problem, then convert it into a production-grade Agent service through standardization, deployment verification, and security checks.Therefore, what X-Agent is building is not just a development tool, but a framework that helps OPCs complete:Demand discovery → Capability building → MCP productization → Agent distribution → Commercial settlement → Market feedbackUltimately forming a self-reinforcing AI business closed loop.The OPC of the future is not one person taking on all the work, but one person using AI and Agents to organize a complete set of company-level capabilities.
According to BeInCrypto, a field research report recently released by the Bank of Italy shows that stablecoins do not possess a systemic cost advantage in cross-border remittances. Researchers tested USDC transfers of $200 through 10 actual remittance corridors, covering routes between Italy and Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, the UAE, and Japan, with total fees ranging from 0.3% to nearly 9%, showing a significant disparity. The study found that on-chain transfers themselves accounted for an average of only 0.4% of the total cost; what truly drove up fees were steps still reliant on banks and exchanges, such as funding, currency conversion, and withdrawal. Taking the UAE-to-Italy corridor as an example, where bank transfers were unavailable and credit card funding was forced, fees alone reached as high as 3.8%. Meanwhile, transfer speeds also differed significantly due to variations in destination payment infrastructure. Instant payment systems like Brazil's Pix could complete settlement within 20 minutes, while South Africa required 1 to 2 business days, no different from traditional bank wire transfers. The report pointed out that stablecoins currently still heavily rely on the banking system they attempt to replace, and the narrative that "stablecoins are quietly replacing traditional payment rails" remains unsubstantiated.
